Hall: We Love Him Deeply

Life--and work--must go on.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation's Robert David Hall (Dr Al Robbins) spoke about Gary Dourdan's (Warrick Brown) recent arrest for drug possession. "I actually worked with him yesterday, and everybody was moving on. It's real hard to get work done when you're so close to the end of the season," Hall explained to Newsday.

When asked why Dourdan is leaving CSI, Hall explained, "I read the same stuff you do." The actor could only give his opinion on what he's heard. "He wants to do other things," Hall explained. "That's the speculation...You and I and the majority of other people would say, why would anyone leave a hit show [Hall just signed for three more seasons] but everybody's different. I can't comment on why Gary and CBS are parting company, but I was told he has dreams of [doing other things - maybe movies?]."

Hall described Dourdan as "a generous, soulful guy." When it comes to supporting the actor at this time, Hall said, "Almost to a person, I'd say ninety-nine percent of the cast and crew are very hopeful that Gary will be OK, and we love him deeply." He went on to say, "I just know him as the guy who gave me a big hug yesterday. The cast and crew want the best for Gary."
